Peace Price

The Nobel Peace Price is getting announced on Friday.....it's going to be interesting to see who will be awarded the medal this year. I'm excited because Malala Yousafzai is nominated, only 16 years old but such a brave, smart and driven young girl. She is a great role model for young girls all over the world. I hope that her voice will be heard and that much deserved changes about girls getting an education and women's rights in certain parts of the world will be acknowledged and taken seriously. I am also excited over Denis Mukwege, a doctor from Congo that specializes in treating women subjected to gang rape and torture. Then my man Vladimir Putin is also nominated.......I'm not so sure about this nomination. I mean, I think Putin is a very SEKSI and smart man but his dealings with the Pussy Riot and his views on homosexuals and transgenders and the laws implemented against the LGBT community in Russia are far from peaceful. Putin does not need the Peace Price for now, he needs a strong woman to slap some sense and fear into him. Like me! I am also happy to see Edward Snowden as one of the nominees, (out of 265) I absolutely agree with what he did and applaud it. I don't view him as a traitor, a see him as somebody that did us a favor. If you think it is something positive to live under surveillance, with little or no privacy and no knowledge about that you are being observed then maybe you should emigrate to North Korea or China. We found out about the NSA, imagine what stuff we don't know about still. The government should not have too much power, the people should have the ultimate power. I think that many brave acts and certain progress in bred out of hardship and misery. When we are too comfortable and have everything at our fingertips we don't feel the need to change stuff, speak up or act because we are already content and want to stay in our comfort zone. People that have a hard life and face daily injustices on the other hand, for those individuals it only makes sense to try to change things, they are willing to fight and stand for what's right. Go Malala!
I still do not understand why Obama got awarded the Peace Price in 2009? Was it basically a disguised personal award to him being this country's first black president somehow, or has he actually worked actively for peace? Although to me he is not black, he is of mixed race, if we are going to be politically correct about the issue. Another thing that has been bothering me for the last couple of days is the statement he made a while back about that Trayvon Martin could had been his son. What about Philip Chism, could that also be his son? Where is the justice for Colleen Ritzer, where are the nationwide headlines and attention for her?
How come Obama doesn't mention what happened to her? She has been on my mind lately,
I feel so sad for her and her family and friends. Sometimes this world makes no sense.
We need more people actively advocating and working for peace and positive changes!

Two Funds

It was so difficult to get out of bed this morning.....well midday cause I didn't wake up until around 11 30. I usually lay around in bed for while before I get up unless I have to be somewhere. I like to cuddle with Chhaya and stretch for a while before getting out of bed.
It warmed up here and it was so nice outside today, in the high 20's instead of some frigid single digits. That makes a huge difference. Me and Chhaya went for a walk in Kenai......so pretty and wintery out.





After that I went to the pool. And then some shopping. I bought a freshly baked (still hot) apple pie that I am bringing into work tonight. I'm going to incorporate the apple pie somehow in my stage routine, maybe sit in it? And then auction it off to the highest bidder, starting bid $ 200.



Me last night and my two funds. I case you don't know, I collect money for two funds that I started, one is a spay and neuter fund (for local animals) and the other is for an abused women and children local shelter (Lee Shore). I haven't been collecting lately because I feel a bit weird (embarrassed) asking people to donate, almost like I'm begging (although NONE of the proceeds go to me). But I need to start bringing out my funds at work more because I would like to donate the money before Christmas and then I can start all over again. I heard about another animal charity on the radio today that I would like to collect for. It's for funding vets and the supplies needed to mainly spay and neuter dogs and cats out in the rural Alaskan villages. You can read about it here www.akrvo.org
Even if what I collect won't be that much.......something is always better than nothing.
It makes me happy in my heart to contribute something positive to people and animals in need.



I was kind of tired at work last night and the club was so smokey towards the end that I couldn't stand it anymore. There is a pregnant girl at work, I don't know what to say about stripping when pregnant......I guess you do what you have to do in order to make money, I can just speak for myself and say that I wouldn't want to be in that situation. But you never know sometimes in life. The thing with this particular girl though is that she is smoking! I think it is really bad to smoke when you are pregnant, SO selfish. Is not not common knowledge or what? I am pretty sure she already has a kid, I don't engage with her because when she first started I got a trashy and druggie vibe from her and that's not my kind of thing. Then I was away for a while and now I guess she is pregnant. At least give up the cigarettes until you have the baby! It is so irritating to see her smoke knowing that she is carrying a child, I feel bad for her unborn baby and I wonder why she feels that she needs to put another kid onto this planet when she obviously have a problem taking care of the first one and in my opinion is severely lacking some crucial mothering skills. Smoking is gross. But to smoke when you are pregnant or expose your babies and/or (growing) toddlers and kids to cigarette smoke, that is plain disgusting. If you want to ruin your health with nasty cigarettes then do so but at least have the decency to not expose your kids and your unborn babies to that poison.

Her Name Was Kiya

Are you ready to cry? A while back I wrote a blog about a little girl pitbull that was found in a park in Boston, badly tortured. Somebody took her to a vet and the vet said that they had never seen an animal abused that badly before.
That little innocent pitbulls name was KIYA, she was about two years old. I so wish I could had saved her, that SOMEBODY could had saved her! What happened to KIYA is that her original owner had to get rid of her due to breed restrictions. Breed restrictions means that dogs of a certain breed, usually pitbulls, rottweilers, dobermans etc are not allowed to live in a certain area, so people end up getting rid of their dogs. Little KIYA ended up on Craigslist a few times and she finally met her brutal fate in the hands of some disgusting Polish guy that beat her so badly that she could not walk and cut her tongue in half. EYE FOR AN EYE I say! Beat his fucking ass so he can't walk and cut his nasty tongue in half. This disgusting excuse for a human lousy Polish fuck should be executed. I would love to do it. I hope he gets tortured to death in jail. I feel HATE for him in my whole being when I read about what he did to that innocent dog. This asshole was supposedly in the country illegally and even stole checks from a church. There you go, that is a nice Catholic Polak for you. Act like a criminal and then go to church on Sunday and pretend you are all innocent and shit and then do a confession once a year and your sins are washed away. Bullshit hypocrisy, it makes me SICK!
Look, I was born in Poland and let me tell you, my patriotism only stretches so far. I love Polish food, I have a hot Polish temper and I guess I must look Slavic because sometimes people I have never seen before will come up to me and ask me if I'm Polish/Ukrainian/Russian. I do enjoy visiting Poland and hear others speak in my native language. But that's about it. I've had the pleasure of meeting some highly educated, well spoken and intelligent Polish people. One that I will always remember was my Polish teacher that I first met when I was ten, Leszek was his name. He was the first person that told me to question things in life and think for myself. When I was ten, the last thing I wanted was to be the different kid in class and be forced to take Polish lessons, I was soooo embarrassed by that but my Mom insisted. Now I am grateful for that experience and knowledge I obtained. Also as a ten year old I didn't really understand what he was talking about when he told me to question information and even authority, he was highly educated, a true intellectual and I am forever grateful to him.
Then there are the Polaks that waste their lives away drinking copious amounts of beer and vodka, talk shit about everybody because they themselves lead miserable lives and every other word that comes out of their mouth is "Kurwa.". Those Polaks I have NOTHING in common with and neither do I want to. Yes, when I get pissed off I do use profanities in Polish and other languages but I don't throw kurwa around when ordering coffee or engaging in regular conversations just because I have nothing better to say. It's just trashy and low class if you ask me and I was not raised like that. Yeah, I am a snob like that.....! And that I am thankful for, THANK YOU Mom! ❤
Growing up in Sweden there was a Catholic church in Stockholm that me and my Mom would go to (me reluctantly), I did the Confirmation and all as a kid. But my Mom, she is a pretty cool lady, decided to stop going to that church because she didn't like how some of the churchgoing Polaks acted. You know, dressed up in their finest clothing with every ring and necklace on display to show everybody else just how well of they now were in Sweden.
Polaks can be very noveau riche and extremely gaudy.....BLEH! Also LOTS of gossiping.
Too much. Especially for church. You do not need church to be religious or spiritual as we all know.......An yes, I do talk about other people too sometimes, I mean you have read my opinions about FUGLY and her sidekick The Bulldog. I talk about real stuff, things that are blatantly wrong AND also true. But I'm not going to sit around and tell random people about a friends STDs or other things she or he might not want the rest of the world to find out, or be glad when other people are going through a hard time in life. You know, trash talk others just so I can feel better about myself and my miserable existence that I try to forget by getting drunk five nights out of seven.
I am a Global Citizen anyways, Polish mixed with growing up in Sweden and I think I could probably fit in pretty much anywhere.

Back to KIYA. You know.....I have a pitbull......Chhaya but her name is pronounced KAYA.
When I moved to Anchorage I lived in a pretty bad part of town in a crummy one bedroom apartment, because it was the ONLY place that I could find that allowed pitbulls. I would do anything for my Chhaya and I hope that KIYA's first owner, some woman, feels really bad that she put her dog up on Craigslist now that she knows the outcome. There are too many pets out there that get abused and neglected. Again, spay and neuter you animals or DO NOT breed them and then put them up on Craigslist just so you can make some money. The same thing that happened to KIYA could happened to your beloved dogs puppies, how would THAT make you feel? STOP and THINK!
There needs to be tougher punishment for people that abuse animals, it is proven that a large number of the freaks that engage in this will also do harmful things to humans. Read up on zoosadism and see for yourself, the numbers are staggering.

Beautiful, sensitive and innocent. I am thinking about her. ❤

Read my old blog about this here

And yes, I am aware of that it is supposedly "derogatory" to call somebody of Polish decent a Polak (or Polack depending on how you spell it) but guess what.....I don't care. I'm Polish and yeah.....there are some lousy Polaks out there, no doubt about that. Just like there are some lousy excuses for humans of every other nationality out there also.
One more thing.....I write pitbull instead of the correct way, pit bull. I am aware of that also.
